Overview

Welcome to our cw-react-date-picker tool, an innovative solution crafted using the react-datepicker library and styled elegantly with Tailwind CSS 3. This component is a direct outcome of the challenges we faced while integrating various date-picking functionalities into web projects. It's tailored to streamline the date selection process, especially for booking flows, and has been refined through insights and inputs from an expert developer.
